Managing our Responsibilities
Introduction
‘The Coca-Cola System’ is the term we use to refer to our business in Great Britain. We are actually made up of two separate companies – Coca-Cola Great Britain (CCGB), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC), and Coca-Cola Enterprises Ltd. (CCE), which is part of Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. Together, these companies form The Coca-Cola System.
Our two companies work closely together but play very different roles. CCGB is responsible for marketing and developing new and existing brands. Based in West London and employing 130 people, it manages over 20 brands (around 100 products) in Great Britain.
